Ranked #1003 - Weekend Packs (3000-4500 cu in)

This is a great pack. I was previously using an Osprey Kestrel series which wasnt great for more than an overnighter but if you had too much weight it in it was a bear. Either way, I packed the Z55 up a couple weeks ago with about 30lbs of stuff for a weekend and put together a nice 25 mile hike. This pack acted like it didnt exist on my back. It held everything with room to spare (more stuff than I realistically needed). This will be my go to pack for everything now. From ultralight overnighters to big weeks. I think this thing could handle it all.
Also on my weekend venture I did some serious bushwacking and the pack did not get a nick or scrape what so ever!
All around buy this pack.
